SUMMARY:
Twilio Build is a partner program for cloud innovators and change agents, with a mission to transform how businesses connect their customers in the modern world. Twilio Build empowers our partners in that mission through tailored resources, training, and tools. Through this program, Twilio shares expertise around specific business functions, product areas, and industries so our partners can best serve customers and differentiate their practices.

Additional terms and associated benefits for participating in Twilio’s Consulting and Technology Partner Programs are also outlined below.
Twilio may revise these Program Policies from time to time. If we do, the revised terms will supersede prior versions. Unless Twilio says otherwise, revisions will be effective upon the effective date indicated above.

Twilio may use the contact information you provide to periodically send you information about Twilio, Twilio Build, or other material that Twilio believes may be of interest to you as a Partner. You give us permission to collect, store, use, disclose and process any information that you provide to us in connection with the Program, including information from your use of the Twilio site or any third party websites and software.

2.2 Press Releases and Public Statements. Please note that as a Partner, you will need to get Twilio’s prior written approval on any press releases or other public statements regarding your participation as a Partner in Twilio Build.
2.3 Identifying Yourself as a Twilio Build Partner. If your participation in the Program meets the qualifications described in the Program Policies (each qualified partner, a “Logo Partner”), Twilio may provide you with a graphic image that identifies you as a Program participant (the “Twilio Build Partner Logo”), which we may modify from time to time. Twilio may also assign different badges based on the partner tier level (“Program Tiers”) a Logo Partner achieves (each a “Partner Badge”).
As a Logo Partner, you may use and display the Partner Badge that corresponds with the Program Tier that Twilio has designated for you. Specifically, you will have a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, revocable license to display the most recent version of the Twilio Partner Program Logo and/or Partner Badge on your websites and your offline materials (e.g., in any printed material, mailing, or other document) to identify your participation in the Program. Any additional uses of the Twilio Partner Program Logo or Partner Badge requires Twilio’s prior written approval.
It is important that you may not modify your Twilio Partner Program Logo or Partner Badge in any way, and that you may not transfer, assign or sublicense your Twilio Partner Program Logo or Partner Badge to any other person or entity. When using the Twilio Partner Program Logo or Partner Badge, you must also follow Twilio’s guidelines at https://www.twilio.com/legal/trademark, as those guidelines are updated from time to time.
Twilio may revoke your license to use your Twilio Partner Program Logo or Partner Badge at any time by giving you written notice. Twilio reserves all rights in the Twilio Partner Program Logo and Partner Badges and related intellectual property rights. Except as expressly described in this Section, Twilio does not transfer or license any additional rights to the Twilio Partner Program Logo and the Partner Badge, or related intellectual property rights.
Further information about Partner Badges and Program Tiers is available in the Technology Program Guide and the Consulting Program Guide.
